You know what else is unhealthy, getting rammed by an SUV. These are screenshots from a video of these two vehicles plowing into protesters. Came down the street side by side and a pretty good clip, not a 1mph push them back move. The video could be speeded up but hit hard enough to send bodies flying.
I put arrows pointing to a pole at the lower right. Using that pole for reference you can see how far they moved in like two seconds.

This guy survived...
And the forecast... CDC June 12th, 2020 ~This week CDC received 17 individual national forecasts. ~This week’s national ensemble forecast suggests that there will likely be between 124,000 and 140,000 total reported COVID-19 deaths by July 4th. ~The state-level ensemble forecasts suggest that the number of new deaths over the next four weeks in Arizona, Arkansas, Hawaii, North Carolina, Utah, and Vermont will likely exceed the number reported over the last four weeks. For other states, the number of new deaths is expected to be similar or decrease slightly compared to the previous four weeks.

So, it turns out that having a real estate agent/politician prescribe medicine isn't really the best option.

Kinda makes you wonder about Commander Bonespur's diminishing capacity.

I do not wonder. I feel those that support him also do not wonder. I'm certain our confident conclusions are 180° apart.

I heard a cosmetics manufacturer is coming out with a line of makeup that's highly facemask resistant. I don't know which one; but, their slogan will supposedly be: Uneasy, Wheezy, Wretchedly - COVIDGIRL.

They've had a series of breeches. They are looking at their quarantine implementation.

In that light masks look to be a big deal.
https://www.pnas.org/node/931542.ful...Z6_Jq3eUlfn0x8 Our results show that the airborne transmission route is highly virulent and dominant for the spread of COVID-19. The mitigation measures are discernable from the trends of the pandemic. Our analysis reveals that the difference with and without mandated face covering represents the determinant in shaping the trends of the pandemic. This protective measure significantly reduces the number of infections. Other mitigation measures, such as social distancing implemented in the United States, are insufficient by themselves in protecting the public. Our work also highlights the necessity that sound science is essential in decision-making for the current and future public health pandemics.

It's very hard for folks in Shitkicker MT or NM that don't know anyone who has died or even gotten sick from it to dismiss the constant barrage of conspiracy theories on the net.

It's also very easy to dismiss people as fools for believing conspiracy theories, but if you are exposed to enough of it, often coming from sources you trust (family and friends retweeting bogus shit they've been fooled by and of course, ya know, Fox) while simultaneously seeing what appears to be the collapse of legitimate journalism (the President of the United States calling out fake media) - you will more than likely start to view these things less critically and be more accepting of a general sense of suspicion and worry.

I have a cousin closer to NYC whose wife is increasingly frustrated by the conspiracy whack jobs in our family. Our county will likely be the last rural county in PA to go green because we've murdered a bunch of nursing home folks with our shitty attitudes. We're just far enough from NYC to believe we're safe.
